Imagine my surprise when I encountered this scene t Walmart while journeying to my office this morning! Click to enlarge.

Droid XLaura and I have been using iPhone 3G units for 18 months. She has complained littleother than the lack of multitasking and lack of flash support. Laura is not, by nature, a complainer. I am. I shall not belabor the issue here. Friday, reader Chris noted my interest in the upcoming Motorola Droid X and alerted me that Best Buy is taking pre-orders for the phone. Following extensive research, I determined that this is the phone I crave/need, and I called the local Best Buy to pre-order two Droid X units. The salesperson with whom I spoke was surprised that I knew of the pre-order that Best Buy would be implementing on the Droid X. He said the store had not actually begun taking pre-orders and took instead a pre-pre-order for two Droid X units. The Droid X is expected to ship on July 15. I am ecstatic. Excitedly, I removed all Apple software from my HP notebook last evening and removed all photographs and music from my iPhoneas well as all 3rd-party applicationswithe the sole exception of the Sirius app. I use this daily when riding our Reebok recumbent cycle. I shall remove all the Apple software from Hal today. A dark cloud which has been hovering overhead is abating. Happy days shall soon return!
